About the role
This interview assesses how you turn an allegation into a fair, evidence-led security investigation. The panel is looking for structured planning, skilful interviews, careful handling of records and reports that distinguish proven facts, reasonable inferences and unresolved gaps.
How to prepare
- Review how you turn an allegation into clear issues, evidence needs and lines of enquiry.
- Practise open, probing and clarification questions for witnesses and subjects.
- Prepare an example where records conflicted and explain how you tested their reliability.
- Revise evidence continuity, secure storage and confidential information handling.
- Think through how you report inconclusive or unwelcome findings without overstating the case.
Common mistakes
- Starting with a preferred suspect instead of testing alternative explanations.
- Using leading questions that contaminate a witness account.
- Treating copied or forwarded material as reliable without checking its source.
- Writing conclusions more strongly than the evidence supports.
